In mid-March I started heirloom tomato seedlings in an egg carton and they are now flowering. Last night for dinner I went out to my raised garden bed and gathered enough lettuce for a nice salad. And there was a surprise showing by squash plants (pumpkins!?) that sprouted from new seeds after I killed my first round of squash egg carton seedlings so they are now happily situated in small area of dirt on our side yard. The peas from my spring garden came out last weekend to make room for summer peppers. The vegetable bounty is so close now I can taste it.
Have you started harvesting anything from your summer garden yet? Is your spring planting still going strong?
The zucchini, beans, peas, and squash are coming up in my veggie patch:) Have a Great Weekend!
Squash already!? That’s wonderful! My peas produces and then dried up already which was perfect timing for me since I wanted to move in more summer crops. Happy gardening!
We’ve got a ton of great stuff coming in too! Sweet Potatoes, Okra and eggplants! We just love eating the natural fresh stuff from our community garden at Sunfield in Austin!
Sweet potatoes and okra and eggplants, oh my! Looking forward to checking out your blog, thanks for sharing!
Exciting! My first sprouts just made an appearance earlier this week. And tonight our temps are supposed to get down to freezing
Hopefully I’ll still have some herbs, sprouts and flowers left after this!
Oh no hopefully the soil is warm enough and they’ll be ok!
